L. Pet. 1 .857 2 .607 4 .333 6 .143 By JACK CUDDY Salt Lake City-tUPII-G e n e Fullmer, two-time kayo con queror of Carmen Basilio, will defend his NBA version of the middleweight crown against Sugar Ray Robinson in an October "rubber match" if Robinson will accept rea sonable terms. That's what Fullmer said today while accepting con gratulations for his impressive second technical knockout victory over ex-champion Ba silio In their return title bout Wednesday night before an estimated 10,500 spectators at Derks Field. The gate was estimated at $98,000. "I've got something I want to settle with Robinson," suid the battle-scarred- champion Jrom nearby West Jordan, Utah. "He's the only man who ever knocked me out. I want to return the favor." Bull-shouldered Gene won the undisputed 100-pound title from Robinson on a de cision at New York, Jan. 2, 1957; but Sugar Ray recap tured it from Gene on a fifth round knockout at Chicago mKmmammmmmwmmn ROAD OILING Hughes & Dodd Co. SP 3-4221 four months later. A third meeting next October would be the decisive rubber match Jcnson and Fullmer agree the fight with Robinson should be staged in the West -perhaps at Salt Lake City, Logan, Utah, or Missoula Mont. Harry Markson, managing director of the Madison Square Garden Boxing club, proposed lo manager and fighter today that Gene meet Sugar Ray in a nationally televised fight in New York in October. They did not re ject Markson's offer, but they reminded him Fullmer is not recognized as world champion by the New York State Ath letic commission. Oul-Boxeg Carmen The New York commission not a member of the National Boxing association, recognizes Paul Pender of Brookline, Mass., as tltleholdcr. Fullmer not only out- punched Basilio Wednesday night, but he actually out boxed him, and gave perhaps the most impressive perform ance in his career of 57 fights as he registered his 52nd vic tory and his 23rd knockout Fullmer, 28, weighed 15014 pounds to 156'2 for 33-year- old Basilio as he improved by two rounds on his technical knockout time over the bruised and bloodied Carmen. Referee Pete G i a c o m a slopped the bout at 2:54 of the 12th round because the former welterweight and mid dleweight champion had been battered into helplessness in the late going alter having been floored in the eighth round. Medford Post 15 American Legion junior baseball club, showing signs that it could finish strong in the southern division of Area 4, dealt a blow last night to Central Point Cheney Stud hopes of catching the front running Klamath Falls nine. The Coca Cola club tipped Central Point 2 to 0 in a fast moving engagement at Cheney diamond here. Each of the clubs maintained its position in the division standings. But, while third place Medford cut the gap to two-games between itself and the second spot Studs, the CP crew slipped to I'i games back of the KF leaders. All four teams in the cir cuit will be in action on Fri day with Central Point meet ing Grants Pass here at 8 p.m. and Medford journeying to Klamath Falls. Medford, which had two-hit pitching by Bob Quinney, col lected just three hits, itself, off Studs' chucker Bill An horn. Post 15, nevertheless, put two of the safeties with Cheney miscues and one of these two with a base on balls to score single runs in the second and third cantos. In the second inning Craig Laurance walked. He sped to third base on a single by Jim Barry and went home when the throw from the outfield got by third baseman Mike Glines. Laurance might have held up at third but the ball went into the Studs' dugout, making the trip across the plate automatic. Mike Neathamer was safe at first base on a third stanza error by CP second baseman Pat Pepper. Wayne Couch forced Neathamer out at sec ond. Danny Miles doubled, sending Couch to third base. On a relay Pepper overthrew third base and Couch came home. Pepper got both hits off Quinney who walked three and hit a batter. Anhorn struck out eight and walked just two. Third Post 15 hit was by Tim White. The CP Post 129 team had its best chances to tally in the sixth and seventh innings. In the sixth Jerry Hauck fan ned but ran to first base when catcher Jim Barry muffed the third strike pitch. Pepper hit. The big opportunity was hurt when Hauck, trying to dash to third, was thrown out by Barry. Glines drew a walk but Steve Harris struck out to retire the side. With two out in the seventh Jeff Anhorn drew a base on balls. Two wild pitches ad vanced him to third sack. Ed Allen whammed the ball down the third base line. It looked like it might go for a hit but third baseman Laurance snared the ball and threw to first for the final out.

Kenneth Keating (R-N.Y.) to day urged organized baseball to "get together and iron out differences" with the Conti nental league. The temporary setback of the Kefauver sports bill on Tuesday left congressmen and the opposing baseball factions in an expansive, con ciliatory mood. Keating wired both base ball Commissioner Ford Frlck and Bill Shea of the Conti nental league Wednesday ask ing them to negotiate in good faith. Sen. Joseph C. O'Mahoney (D-Wyo.) said the Kefauver sports bill is "not dead" de spite Tuesday's vote to return it to the Senate judiciary committee. On the contrary, O'Mahoney said, this move had given the baseball anti trust bill "a new lease on life." ,In New York, Frlck reiter ated that the proposed bill was "bad legislation," but added, "our opposition was in no way pointed toward the Continental league."
